Here are symptoms: upon clean startup, things work fine. "Found no mail!" appears upon subsequet calls to gnus-group-get-new-news. I believe this to be the case due to a .gnus-crash-box file which is generated and empty. Apparently, gnus believes that this contains the contents of a spool file (seems that it's trying to read it). "Found no mail!" also appears if the spool file exists, but is zero-length, a common occurance around here (as spool files are symlinked). -Erik
